Detroit is celebrating a young genius.

At just eight years old, Myles Dantzler has been accepted into Mensa, the world’s largest and oldest high-IQ society. This honor is reserved for individuals who score in the top 2% globally on a supervised intelligence assessment.

The third grader taught himself how to read at just three years old and now reads at a seventh grade level. Teachers describe him as deeply curious and driven, with a love for learning that stretches far beyond the classroom.

The community is rallying behind him, and we’re celebrating every bit of it. 🖤

Watching the @NBA All Star game and @TeamUSA at the Winter Olympics, it’s clear that sports — just like music and art — still has the power to bring us together, build community, and remind us of our common humanity.
